KEEP IT ORGANIZED
When conducting your job search, it is common to bump into the same advertisement on a number of different locations so you have to be very careful not to send your application twice or more to a prospective employer. Keep a record of which positions you have applied to, when you have applied for them, and ensure that you follow-up on your applications.
You will be probably sending a lot of applications a day, so it is a good idea to print every job advertisement you apply for and date it. Always keep them handy and try to take them wherever you go so that if a prospective employer calls you regarding a job application, you can know exactly what the key selection criteria for that position was.
It is also a good idea to know if you are applying to a HR company, or to the employer directly. Be sure to understand that differences may apply to the process depending on who the job is listed by.
